At Freefarm, my focus is on crafting exceptional sound and music, from a microscopic jewel of audio for a sonic logo to a vast ensemble of imaginary creatures for a 20 metre video wall.
I have worked with many of the world’s most respected brands, soundtracking hundreds of projects across interactive art experiences, exhibitions, film and advertising.
Music and sound design often blur in my work. I take a genre agnostic approach, always looking for a unique outcome or a fresh perspective on an established idea.
I emerged from the London electronica scene of the mid-90s, releasing and performing as Freeform alongside Autechre, Boards of Canada and Aphex Twin. My music releases remain an essential space for open exploration.
Simon Pyke, Freefarm.
